    Ive never had this problem with a mouse before so I dont know what going on exactly.

    Heres the problem: When Im gaming for about an hour or so, the cursor just starts going up and down faster than a bullet. lol. No but seriously, it just goes up and down. It doesnt stop til it feels like it.

    Maybe its dead? Lol ive had it for awhile. Maybe I just need to try a new driver? I wont be able to do that for another month however.

    thanks :cool:

    Sounds like a driver problem to me.

    The only other thing I can think of is maybe the sensor gets gunked up after you use it for a while. What kind of mouse pad do you use? Is it clean?

    i used to get that problem with my old one (blue version), but just one quick jump in any direction. I know they released a driver that was supposed to help, also try updating the firmware if you haven't already. With my old one i asked about it and they told me to try removing the sticker around the sensor and clean around the sensor with a cue tip, which helped a little.

    I just bought a new one yesterday after the middle mouse button on my last one broke. I got the red, which i think they released later, and it doesn't have that problem at all.

    Update the firmware first, then the driver. Download from Razerzone website.
